Sinopse

As vacinas contra COVID-19 (do inglês, Corona Virus Disease) foram desenvolvidas e comercializadas em tempo recorde, mas não deixaram de atender às rigorosas etapas de testes pré-clínicos e clínicos para validação da segurança e eficácia(1-2). O curto período de tempo transcorrido desde o sequenciamento do SARS-CoV-2 (do inglês, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) até a autorização da primeira vacina contra COVID-19 pode ser atribuído a diversos fatores, dentre eles, o conhecimento acumulado durante décadas, desde o desenvolvimento da primeira vacina(2). Além disso, a pandemia do novo Coronavírus mobilizou pesquisadores do mundo todo e favoreceu o estabelecimento de parcerias e o compartilhamento das plataformas anteriormente desenvolvidas para combater os surtos da Síndrome Respiratória Aguda Grave (SARS-CoV), provocada por um Coronavírus identificado na província de Guangdong, na China em 2002, e da Síndrome Respiratória do Oriente Médio (MERS-CoV), identificada na Península Arábica em 2012(2).
